How to make a cover page for a thesis

Cover page of a dissertation: definition and objective

In the context of writing a dissertation , the cover page is placed just after the first cover . If the pagination begins with it, it is not for a question of aesthetics. Indeed, the jury uses it to mark the various annotations, mention the comments as well as the remarks analyzed throughout the dissertation.

 

It is therefore a blank page essentially dedicated to the jury which will be used for taking notes. Even if the title page is generally placed at the beginning of the document, it can also happen to be found at the beginning of each part. In this case, they are used to critique these specific parts.

 

???? Warning! The cover page and the cover page are often confusing. These two elements are found in the first pages of the thesis, but not in the same place. The cover page precedes the cover page. Unlike the title page, the latter is optional.
